Abstract

Genette's novels tend to adopt the internal focalization on the protagonist with the occasional shift of focalization to mold more lively characters and manifest the thematic significance more forcefully.In contrast,his short stories often rely heavily on the dramatic mode of focalization,accompanied with much dialogue,which collectively creates more lively effects and represents Hemingway's style more powerfully.
